Material design optimization for large-m 11B4C-based Ni/Ti supermirror neutron optics
Sjoerd Stendahl, Naureen Ghafoor, Anton Zubayer +4
State-of-the-art Ni/Ti supermirror neutron optics have limited reflected intensity and a restricted neutron energy range due to the interface width. Incorporating low-neutron-absor…

Morphology of buried interfaces in ion-assisted magnetron sputter deposited 11B4C-containing Ni/Ti multilayer neutron optics investigated by grazing incidence small angle scattering
Sjoerd Broekhuijsen, Naureen Ghafoor, Matthias Schwartzkopf +3
Multilayer neutron optics require precise control of interface morphology for optimal performance. In this work, we investigate the effects of different growth conditions on the in…
